Spanky was an awesome guy. Dedicated husband and father; a fantastic, generous friend. B-52 A/C, T-38 IP and U-2 pilot. I believe he was one of the last pilots selected for the SR-71 but the program was canceled before he had a chance to fly it. He had owned and flown that Luscombe for at least 20 years. There are just not enough words to describe how great a man he was....or how sad I am that he is gone.
